A Comprehensive Guide To Aromatherapy Oils

Aromatherapy is a holistic approach to health that has been around for many years. It is a science and an art that has been practiced in some form since the beginning of civilization. Oils are extracted from a variety of plants to be used for beauty and health purposes. In addition to the beneficial physical effects of these oils, when they are inhaled, they also have positive effects on emotions and the mind. Synthetic oils are not acceptable in the form of aromatherapy. Even though they have a similar aroma, the natural elements are nonexistent, which makes them useless for anything other than the aromatic elements.

Safety and Storage

When using essential oils for aromatherapy, there are a variety of ways they can be used. Before putting them to use, however, it is essential to realize the potency of the oils you decide to use. You may be required to dilute the oils with carrier oils in an effort to prevent adverse effects from oils that are too strong. Use a dropper to measure the precise amount of drops you use as this determines the strength of your mixture. When storing the essential oil, make sure they are kept in dark glass bottles and in a cool location. The high-quality oils can generally be kept for years, but oils such as lime, lemon and orange generally have a shorter shelf life.

Uses

One way to make use of the aromatherapy oils is to make your own perfume blend. The perfumes that are on the market today typically have a synthetic blend of oils that resemble the scent, but do not contain the elements that make it beneficial. Since oils evaporate easily, another method to use for aromatherapy is through the use of air fresheners. A good oil freshener to use when you need to have a clear mind for work is peppermint. One of the most effective ways to use oils for freshening the air is a diffuser. These allow the scent to linger for an extended period of time.

Inhale the oils by adding a few drops to a steaming bowl of water, use a towel to cover your head and inhale the steam for a few minutes at a time. To make a compress, simply add a few drops to water, soak a towel or compress and apply to the affected area. You can also take baths with aromatherapy oils, but since oils do not dissolve in water, you must use a blender, such as salt or Epsom salt.
